Been going here since they opened years and years ago. Quality has stayed top tier. Equator is excellent. Love their breve cappuccino. Decent pastry selection. Friendly and helpful staff this morning. Thank you all. Sometimes has long waits when they get busy, but šŸ’Æ worth the wait

Almond croissant is the best I’ve ever had! Very rich. Also got the habibi latte. Would 100% go back!

We’ve been here once before, and my husband really enjoys their coffee and almond croissant, so this time we tried a coffee along with almond and chocolate croissants. Everything was fresh and delicious! The staff is super friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. Definitely a cozy spot worth revisiting.

Staff didn’t greet or smile, I was judged for my drink order so loudly my friend heard. The matcha is tasteless/watery. I wanted to love it because it seems to be such a popular spot in town but I would never come again

Hey friends! This review is about sustainability only. ā˜ŗļø

By 2050, there will be more plastic in the ocean than fish. While i am delighted to see that you are a B lab member who is working at chipping away at his problem, I was kind of sad to see that most of the folks in here working or meeting with friends are drinking out of single-use to-go cups.

I understand that the to-go cups you provide are technically compostable, but without any real composting infrastructure on site, these will go straight to the landfill or ocean as well. It looks like you just have one trashcan collecting everything, and just because something is ā€œcompostableā€ doesn’t mean it actually gets processed as such.

I wonder if to start, you could better communicate to folks who are staying to have their coffee that they have the reusable option of the mug. Maybe it’s as simple as asking, are you going to be having your coffee here?

I also wonder if you might be able to provide a separate receptacle for the compostable cups. And work with some entity in the county to pick up said composting.

I love that you don’t sell any plastic bottled water, so kudos on that! And if my observations are wrong, then I stand corrected!

But I think as a surf-related, ocean-adjacent, B lab coffee shop, you could interact with customers accordingly to make sure they are aware of—and are normalizing—the for-here, reusable option. Thank you for your consideration, and for the delicious coffee!

Great coffee and good pastries (pull apart savory and chocolate croissants are delicious), there’s parking, it’s got a nice surfer vibe, could use an additional restroom as there was a line for the bathroom and for getting coffee, too.

One of the best cold brews I’ve ever had. I recommend the plain brew with no syrup/flavoring - totally smooth and perfect as is. šŸ‘Œ

Edit: Not only was I lied to by the staff, but the management also lied to me and used me for more information. That is even worse, in my opinion. The staff is a reflection of the management.

Stopped for coffee and snacks with friends over the weekend. I told the young lady in the front that I am vegetarian and was looking to confirm if their savory bun had meat. She looked at her book and said no. I ordered my drinks and food and was dismayed to find out there was HAM. I've not eaten meat since high school, and this was a shock. I went back inside to inform her that it had meat and her instant response was no, it doesn't. Then, she looked at her coworker to try and gaslight me into agreeing with her. They didn't even offer a replacement or refund.

How hard is it to make a small decaf coffee with one shot of espresso? Starbucks got it right, too hard for this place! Even the remake was wrong, and it was expensive. I just want a coffee as black and bitter as my soul without feeling cracked out on caffeine, do I need to justify my drink to you? it's none of your concern, that's what I want. That tip I gave you, I'd like it back, bad job.

The pastry was meh. Not worth the calories. Would have been a lot better if heated, but they won't heat it up. Only bagels get heated.

He didn't ask if I wanted my coffee for here or to go.
